Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Hi, my name is Spencer Cueni and I am a student at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, TX. At the time of the attacks I was beiginning my junior year in college. It was a regular Tuesday I got up at 7:30 to get ready for my classes. At about 8 I sat down in the living room to watch Good Morning America as I do everyday. I will never forget what I saw. All I could see was smoke and at the bottom of teh screen it said New York City. I immediately called my dad to see what was going on and he told me that a plane had hit the World Trade Center and they thought itwas an accident. As I was talking to my dad we were waching the same channel and I saw what I though was a replay of the plane hitting and I said "Oh My God Daddy, they are showing the reply." My father gasped and told me that wasn't a replay which I quickly understood because everyone on TV was screaming that another plane had hit. I had to get off teh phone and go to class and it still felt like something out of a movie until I got to class. When I walked in my professor had the TV on and I saw that the firts tower had collapsed, the I saw what I thought was metal falling from the builings until I realize that it was people jumping from the burning building. I began to weep with everyone else in class. I cannot believe this happened in our country where I have always felt safe. Now everytime I get on a plane I hold my breath and my chest hurts until I get off. I will never forget that day, I carry it and the images with me everyday and I doubt there will ever come a day in my life where I don't think about it and all of the innocent lives that were lost. I continue to pray for the families of the victims and for our country. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
